Bug description

Sometimes the timeline would get replaced by pending search that has been replaced by a new search.

Steps to reproduce

1. Search for something
2. while loading, search again for something else
3. If the network is not fast enough (e.g. caused by smaller result on second search), the first search will be displayed on the timeline instead of the second search result.

Solution

Easiest but temporary solution:

• having a timestamp for checking mechanism before updating timeline state.

Long-term solution:

• rearchitect timeline state to be more local than using state container like riverpod
